Spicy Corn Stew With Chunks Of Salmon Recipes

SPICY CORN STEW

Steps:

• Shuck the corn and cut the kernels off the cobs. Reserve the corncobs and kernels separately.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 2 of the tablespoons of butter. Add the bacon and onion, cover and cook 3 to 5 minutes, until the onion is softened but not browned.
• Add the wine and bring to a boil. Add the garlic and jalapeno and boil until the wine is reduced to about 1 tablespoon. Add the chicken broth and corncobs. Simmer for 30 minutes.
• Add the corn kernels and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and discard the corncobs and bacon.
• Swirl the remaining tablespoon of butter into the corn. Add the cherry tomatoes, minced cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the sprigs of cilantro. Serve warm.

SALMON AND CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Prepare a campfire or wood-fired grill for cooking with indirect heat.
• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat and sauté the celery for 3 minutes. Add the potatoes, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in the green onions and corn and add 2 cups of the stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are almost tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add the cream and simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the salmon and lemon zest and simmer gently until the salmon is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add more stock as needed and lemon juice to taste. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Serve in bowls, topped with the dill.

SAUTEED SALMON WITH SWEET CORN

Steps:

• Remove the stems from the mushrooms, and reserve them from the sauce. If the mushrooms are large, halve or quarter them.
• Skewer the garlic clove securely onto the tines of a fork. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. When the oil just begins to smoke, add the spinach. Cook, stirring with the fork, until wilted. Season with salt and pepper, and place in a colander to drain.
• In the same pan, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter. Saute the mushrooms, stirring with the fork, until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the corn, and cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the spinach in the center of 4 plates. Surround the spinach with the corn mixture. Keep warm. Heat the remaining oil and butter in the pan over high heat. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, and saute until medium-rare, about 2 minutes per side.
• Place a salmon fillet atop the spinach on each plate. Spoon the sauce over the salmon, garnish with chives, and serve immediately.

BASQUE-STYLE SALMON STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan and add the peppers, onion and potatoes. Cook, stirring regularly for 5-8 mins until golden. Then add the paprika, garlic, thyme and tomatoes. Bring to the boil, stir and cover, then turn down heat and simmer for 12 mins. Add a splash of water if the sauce becomes too thick.
• Season the stew and lay the salmon on top, skin side down. Place the lid back on and simmer for another 8 mins until the salmon is cooked through. Scatter with parsley, if you like, and serve.
